Tutorial 1 - How to Style Your Typography Using Clipping Masks
Step 1 - Open you Photoshop software and make a new document. If you are
planning to use the graphics for web, “72” dpi resolution is highly recommended. Next,
type in the words you want to use and design. On this tutorial I will be using “MY BLOG”.
Step 2 - Next step is to create a new layer on the top of the text layer. On your
photoshop top toolbar, click Layer > > New > > Layer. Or click the paper icon in the right
bottom corner of the layers panel next to the trash can icon. After that you’ll have a
transparent blank new layer where you can draw anything.
